Hannah Shore, Silentnight Sleep Expert, said: “Sleeping in the heat can be a real nightmare, we are constantly throwing off the duvet, twisting and turning and trying to find the “cool” side of the pillow, all of which affects the quality of the sleep we get. If you have difficulty sleeping during the warmer months, you should consider having a different duvet for summer and winter. Your summer duvet should be a lightweight duvet, and if you’re still too warm to sleep, this can be swapped for a sheet. You should also ensure your bedding is made from breathable fibres. Natural fibres are good at temperature regulating however, some people find these materials a little heavy. If that’s you, opt for polyester, as these will offer you a breathable sleeping environment but will not be as heavy.” Hannah’s 5 top tips for getting a good night’s sleep in warm weather… 1. Use a lightweight summer duvet. 2. Ensure your bedding is made from breathable fibres. 3. Get a mattress that regulates body temperature. 4. Keep curtains and blinds closed during the daytime. 5.
